Dual, High-Efficiency, Step-Down
Controller with High Impedance in Shutdown
MAX8743
General Description
The MAX8743 is a dual pulse-width modulation (PWM)
controller configured for step-down (buck) topologies
that provides the high efficiency, excellent transient
response, and high DC output accuracy necessary for
stepping down high-voltage batteries to generate low-
voltage chipset and RAM power supplies in notebook
computers. The CS_ inputs can be used with low-side
sense resistors to provide accurate current limits or can
be connected to LX_, using low-side MOSFETs as cur-
rent-sense elements. High output impedance in shut-
down eliminates negative output voltages, saving the
cost of a Schottky diode at the output.
The on-demand PWM controllers are free running, con-
stant on-time with input feed-forward. This configuration
provides ultra-fast transient response, wide input-output
differential range, low supply current, and tight load-reg-
ulation characteristics. The MAX8743 is simple and easy
to compensate.
Single-stage buck conversion allows the MAX8743 to
directly step down high-voltage batteries for the highest
possible efficiency. Alternatively, two-stage conversion
(stepping down the 5V system supply instead of the bat-
tery at a higher switching frequency) allows the minimum
possible physical size.
The MAX8743 is intended for generating chipset, DRAM,
CPU I/O, or other low-voltage supplies down to 1V. The
MAX8743 is available in 28-pin QSOP and 36-pin thin
QFN packages.

For the MAX8743EEI, AGND and PGND refer to a single pin designated GND.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
